Edsel?

Former President Gerald Ford often reminded people that he was a Ford, not a Lincoln. Today's GOP is not even a Ford. It's an Edsel. More

Is This Asshole Still Alive?

"From now on, the Republicans are never going to get more than 10 to 20 percent of the Negro vote, and they don't need any more than that." Referring to passage of the 1965 Voting Rights Act, he added: "The more Negroes who register as Democrats in the South, the sooner the Negrophobe whites will quit the Democrats and become Republicans. That's where the votes are."

A Lincoln

That's an insult to the Edsel. I drove one once, it wasn't all that bad. I'm told that all the seals leaked oil constantly and all that chrome corroded within a year or two. On the other hand, I know a person in the UP who was given a 4 wheel drive, Lincoln "Navigator", massive SUV. Her folks gave it to her to protect their grandkids. It couldn't corner because the center of gravity was way to high, so was in the ditch more than out, and it could never get itself out, even in 4 wheel drive. Every few months it needed a new part, and cost $1000 just driving past the dealership. People wonder why these folks need bailouts. They need to get their heads out of their arses.

They'll always be remembered
